Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. An apparatus comprising: memory for storing a color video signal comprising first data and second data; a processor programmed for: modifying first color information and second color information of the first data by encoding a signal in the first color information such that the signal includes a first signal polarity, and encoding the signal in the second color information such that signal includes a second signal polarity that is inversely related to the first signal polarity, modifying first color information and second color information of the second data by encoding the signal in the first color information such that signal includes the second signal polarity, and encoding the signal in the second color information such that the signal includes the first signal polarity.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 in which encoding the signal utilizes digital watermark embedding.
3. The apparatus of claim 1 in which the signal—once encoded in the first data and in the second data—is imperceptible to a human observer as the video is rendered in real time.
